A pasta maker will give your favourite foodie the chance to airily declare, “I stopped buying pasta because homemade tastes so much better.” This Italian-made machine by Imperia has two rollers: one for solid sheets of pasta, and the other to make fettuccine or linguine. And, if Santa is feeling extra generous, an optional attachment ($72) rolls, stuffs and crimps dough to make cushiony ravioli. $100. See 20 other gifts for cooks »
